Dogs best friend.

Pet care experience

My parents bought my first dog (a shetland sheep dog named Reilly) when I was 10. I was responsible for everything, walks, food, potty breaks, play. When I was not taking care of Reilly I was also dog sitting for my neighbors pit bull. When I moved to NYC I had to say goodbye to my puppy friends. Fortunately my girlfriend has the friendliest chihuahua ever and I get to take care of him when she is away for work. I have developed a sense for judging a dog's character and then anticipating their needs. I only offer sitting and walking services if the dog can stay at their house because their comfort is my top priority. I will love your dog as much as you do.

Chris took care of our corgi Felicity a few weeks ago when we were backpacking in Colorado and she absolutely loved him! We've actually been able to make more travel plans now that we know she is in such good hands -- Chris is thoughtful, professional, and goes way beyond what is expected of him. Most importantly, it is clear he loves Felicity as much as we do, and even sent us cute pictures of her when they took walks around the city together. 10/10 would definitely recommend Chris and his services.

My tiny little diva of a dog (puppy mill rescue) can be quite a handful but Chris was patient and kind with her. Luci usually dislikes men and can be a little aggressive with new people but took a liking to Chris and now greets him with her tail held high - and wagging! Chris was great at listening to my concerns about Luci and my roommate says that he was kind and respectful when entering our apartment to retrieve Luci. Highly recommend!

Let me tell you, chihuahuas are finicky! Chris has provided unparalleled care and attention for both of our boys for over two years. I cannot recommend his services highly enough. He treats every dog as his own, and is diligent to all their particularities. Sometimes I think he understands Joanie and Chachi better than I do. He's got a real gift! Love!

Chis is a reliable and responsible dog walker. My dog seemed to be comfortable with him and come back relaxed and happy. I appreciated Chris' timely manner and professional work ethic. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Chris.
